1. Problem Description

Expand the expression (x3)(x2)(x-3)(x-2).

2. Solution Steps

To expand the expression (x3)(x2)(x-3)(x-2), we use the distributive property (also known as the FOIL method).
(x3)(x2)=x(x2)3(x2)(x-3)(x-2) = x(x-2) - 3(x-2)
=xxx23x+32= x*x - x*2 - 3*x + 3*2
=x22x3x+6= x^2 - 2x - 3x + 6
=x25x+6= x^2 - 5x + 6

3. Final Answer

x25x+6x^2 - 5x + 6
